June 12th, 2007
Dr Igor Filatotchev from Cass Business School, City University, London

In this seminar, Dr Filatotchev developed an organizational approach to corporate governance. He discussed how most corporate governance research focuses on a universal link between corporate governance practices and performance outcomes, but neglects the important role played by organizational and environmental context. He proposed that by approaching corporate governance from an “open systems” perspective, the effectiveness of governance in diverse environments can be analyzed.
